Hi. My name is Michael Casher and I'm a
blog-a-holic. I'm not sure if admitting that is the first step toward a
recovery of some kind or just a proud
proclamation of some sort. It doesn't matter. I don't blog (now it's a
verb) because everybody's doing it. In fact, I'm the kind of person who avoids fads on
principle so it's not that. And I don't blog to make money because I never made a dime blogging and don't expect to. So, it's not that, either.
If I made money blogging it'd just be a matter of time before some hospital or medical group billed me for all of it so I'd rather not tempt that kind of negative karma,
thank you. And I don't really blog for
fun because writing a blog and adding images and links and maintaining sidebars and footers and keeping them active and current and
interesting is more of a pain in the ass than anything else. So it's not
that.
OK, get ready for the real reason because if there
ever was an admission that I hope is the first step toward recovery
this is it. I blog for
therapy. There, I said it. But, every now and then, I have some
fun and sometimes I even have a
ball blogging and, you guessed it,
Think-A-Holic Lounge is my favorite blog to write. I just gave it a face lift this week and now it looks all spacey and exotic. My favorite blogs to write used to be
Fred Fortune,
Little Green Man from Mars and Think-A-Holic Lounge but the
other two (along with
Jonco Bugos and
Random Retro Reviews of the 20th Century) got turned into a book called "The Four Bloggers of the Apocalypse" so I basically retired them but keep them "alive" with occasional new image posts or videos.
And you know what? Blogging for
therapy is a lot better than running naked through the back yard and screaming, "Why me? Why me?"
